✓Who Is Eligible?

The PM Surya Ghar Rooftop Solar Scheme is open to residential households across India who want to install rooftop solar panels on their own property. The scheme allows households to set up solar installations of up to 3 kilowatt capacity on their rooftops. While specific age, income, or caste-based restrictions are not clearly defined in the standard scheme guidelines, applicants must own or have authorized access to the residential property where the solar installation will be done. The property should have adequate rooftop space that receives sufficient sunlight throughout the day for effective solar generation. Renters or those living in rented properties may face restrictions unless they have written permission from the property owner. All Indian citizens and registered residential property owners are generally eligible to apply. For exact eligibility criteria regarding income limits, property ownership documents, or any category-specific requirements, please check the official PM Surya Ghar portal at pmsuryaghar.gov.in or contact your state's renewable energy authorities, as some additional local requirements may apply.
